Yes, The Great Rift and Rift Adventures 1-5. I'll buy them as soon as they're available, thanks. Would the Roll20 product contain the text of the adventure? What I mean is would I still need to also buy the PDF? Thanks for taking the time to keep us informed about what is going on with Roll20...

This is the kind of thing that will make me buy the Roll20 books, instead of cobbling together images from the internet or PDFs I already own. I'm preparing a campaign in the Islands subsectors, so if Roll20 packs are being prepared for the Rift and Rift adventures I'll be a very happy bunny.

Ooh, I am preparing for a campaign set in the Islands cluster, so this is good timing! Will the Rift adventures assume that the travellers are natives, visiting Imperials, or does it not matter?

Exactly. The travellers have just acquired the ship - so what is it about the ship that makes it "a famous and respected trader, with a good reputation", twice?

I have started preparing my first Traveller campaign, set in the Great Rift (using the box set) - specifically the New/Old Islands subsectors. The travellers will be locals, rather than visiting Imperials, as I want to keep things contained to a relatively small area, even if they got a ship...

I'm excited to read this. I'm currently planning out a campaign in the Rifts sector, and trying to figure out the best way to handle starship costs without needing a spreadsheet (I do enough of that at work!).

Thanks for all your suggestions. I'll probably buy The Great Rift PDF set, and see what clusters of worlds there are that inspire me. I'll also look up Islands in the Rift. I just bought the Bundle of Holding, so that was good timing :)

I am considering running a game of Traveller with my regular gaming group (who have all moved online now - allowing us to include members that have moved away). One person has been running D&D for the last 9+ months, and another is ready to run Call of Cthulhu (Berlin). I'd like to offer...

Sorry, I'm still not clear what you mean. I bought a copy of the CRB 2nd Edition in PDF format. Earlier this year it got updated with some revisions. I received those for free by simply re-downloading the PDF. In order to receive the 2022 revisions, will I: a) receive them for free, like I...

Will the current CRB PDF continue to be updated with the 2022 revisions, or will it be frozen as it is, and there be a new CRB2022 PDF which would require purchasing if we wanted the 2022 revisions?

Ooh, I like what I'm seeing, so far :) Is that $20 off the completed PDF ordered through DTRPG, or off the hard copy book through your own store?

No - it would never occur to us to video our game sessions. Part of me is curious to understand what you mean by it being more like a boardgame - and part of me is thinking that this is just way off topic, and I don't want derail it any further :) Speaking of the Millennium Falcon ops manual...

Apologies for picking out just this one comment, but we didn't experience this - when we played FFG Star Wars it felt just like most other RPGs we have played (and we have played quite a few games since the early 80's).

No, because:
